The book is centered around dead people and meeting people from all walks of life as they die in various ways - understanding and helping them process their dead and pass. Most characters are complicated and real with great detail of their emotions, feelings, and inner dialogue and they process their life and what happened to them or what they're currently going through.

Everyone is incredibly good, of course. But it's still just a lovely book, and the ruminations on death and the afterlife are hopeful and healing. I loved it.
